If professional athletes with multi-million dollar yearly contracts are learning how to code, perhaps it’s time for the rest of us to catch up? Today on Wired, Miami Heat Star Chris Bosh wrote an opinion piece about the importance of the skill. “At this point, learning to code is simply about understanding how the world functions,” he writes.

Bosh credits his tech-savvy parents with instilling in him the desire to constantly learn and keep up with technology. Growing up, he says he noticed the world was increasingly relying on coding. “We’d be fools to ignore the power of mastering the designing and coding of those patterns,” he says. And even though some say it doesn’t directly relate to his career on the courts, Bosh thinks they’re wrong. “It’s become how our world is run.”
